print the two lines of text and then move the print head up the page to print the line of hyphens above the first line. 10 LPRINT "REVERSE FEED" 20 LPRINT 30 LPRINT "ARE YOU WATCHING?" 40 LPRINT CHR$(27)"j"CHR$(140); 50 LPRINT If your system cannot send lowercase letters to the FX, use the numeric equivalent of " j " -CHR$(106). Don't use reverse feed with mailing labels in the printer-they can either move on their gummed paper or peel off and get stuck inside the FX. Summary The FX provides line spacing in increments of 0/72- to 85/72-inch and 00/216- to 255/216-inch. You can cause the FX to change the size of a line space to one of three preset sizes, or you can specify a size in fractions of an inch. You'll use variable line spacing primarily for graphics. The FX also gives you commands to produce an immediate line feed, either forward or backward. Table 7-1 summarizes the line-spacing commands and gives a sample of each. 101

LPRINT “___________"
If your system cannot send lowercase letters to the FX, use the
numeric equivalent of ” j ” -CHR$(106).
Don’t use reverse feed with mailing labels in the printer-they can
either move on their gummed paper or peel off and get stuck inside the
FX.
Summary
The FX provides line spacing in increments of 0/72- to 85/72-inch
and 00/216- to 255/216-inch. You can cause the FX to change the size of
a line space to one of three preset sizes, or you can specify a size in
fractions of an inch. You’ll use variable line spacing primarily for
graphics.
The FX also gives you commands to produce an immediate line
feed, either forward or backward.
Table 7-1 summarizes the line-spacing commands and gives a sam-
ple of each.
